I believe Dopplr's idea is very well intentioned. Just that it doesn't seem to mean much, which is a pity.

I've been involved with the energy industry for a decade now and I can tell you that the carbon footprint numbers cooked up by various websites mean nothing. Absolutely nothing. No one has any accurate way of calculating how much CO2 a person is responsible for. Are they calculating the number of times you exhale a day into your footprint? Ridiculous.
